Err, my question was meant to be: Does anyone recognize this acid track?
It appears to be none of these: http://www.whosampled.com/Renegade-Soundwave/The-Phantom-%28Turntable-Scratch%29/
Remixer is credited as 'Radical Crew' (only credit on Discogs is this track)

don't know about that sample but those credits are sloppy. That track doesn't sample Area Code's Stone Fox Chase OR Cymande, or Run DMC it samples Royal House's The Chase, which is Todd Terry sampling Stone Fox Chase and Cymande and Run DMC.

interesting stuff, definitely needs a second part re RSW and beyond ...

why oh why have these guys not yet cashed in on the late 80s/early 90s reunion groove !?
i mean seriously.
modern techno toys would mean they could perform live with little effort.

They probably don't get along. They both do stuff with versions of the name. Danny seems to do more straight modern dub type stuff, while Gary's been reissuing and reworking Rema Rema and doing stuff as Renegade Soundmachine. I really wish I was more convincing when emailing Gary going back to the myspace days about the then yet-unreleased Rema Rema stuff.

i realised this after a bit of research and chat ..
such a shame as they could easily pay off mortgages etc if they hit the reunion trail ..

I just reread Neuromancer for the zillionth time and was thinking about how I like to listen to certain records or bands when reading certain books/comics because it’s a perfect soundtrack and for me the soundtrack to Neuromancer is Soundclash. There’s a lot of dub in the book so RSWs take on decadent industrial digital dub pop always seemed fitting.

i interviewed renegade soundwave but i don't think the piece was very good
― mark s, Thursday, 28 November 2019 17:51 (four years ago) link
after a nudge, i listened to all 4 albums yesterday/today.yeah, their stuff still hits the spot.never got the 2cd comp though as not enough non-lp material on it.now, a comp of their own remixes and their remixes of others would be most appreciated, but i suspect the chances are somewhat slim.

Gary’s been busy with Rema Rema, movie coming soon. Danny did some production and remixes with Rico Conning and makes radio mixes.
